DEVICE non MAKING mins,

Application filed April 21,

This invention relates generally to machinery for use in the tie manufacturing trade, and has more particular reference to a device for the manufacture of casing material used in bow ties. f

The invention has for an object, the provision of a novel device for the manufacture of casing material for bow ties, which will eliminate the necessity of stitching, and which is efficient, positive and reliable in action.

For further comprehension of the invention and of the objects and advantages thereof, reference will be had to the following descriptionand accompanying drawings and to the appended claims in which the various novel features of the invention are more particularly set forth.

Referring to the accompanying drawings, forming a material part of this disclosure:

Fig. 1 is a side view of a device constructed according to this invention.

Fig. 2 is a fragmentary plan view thereof, seen looking in the direction of the line 2-2 of Fig. 1. Y

Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional view, taken on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2.

Fig. 4 is a vertical sectional view, taken on the line 4-4 of Fig. 3.

Fig. 5 is a vertical sectional view, taken on the line 5-5 of Fig. 3.

Fig. 6 is a vertical sectional view, taken on the line 6-6 of Fig. 3.

Fig. 7 is a vertical sectional view, taken on the line 7-7 of Fig. 2.

Fig. 8 is a vertical sectional view, taken on the line 8--8 of Fig. 2.

The reference numeral 10 indicates generally a support upon which is disposed a standard 11 rotatably supporting a roll of silk material 12, a roll of lining material 13, and a roll of rubberized tape 14. Guiding and folding means generally indicated in Fig. 1 by numeral 15, rests on the support 10, andl bends the edges 12 of material 12 upon the lining 13, and at the same time guiding the rubberized tape 14 upon these edges 12 and the top of the lining 13. Ironing means, including an electric iron 16 slidably supported by bracket 17 provided with tensioning means 18, vserves toheat-the rubberizedltape i 14, causing it to become attached to the edges p 12. and'lining 13,"forming'bow tie casing. ma-V terial'. The support 10 also supports a guide 19 and a bracket 2O.` The guide-19 directs theV bow tie casing material from beneath the iron`16 toV a roll 21 rotatably supported by the bracket 20` and provided with'a gear. 22, and a driver chain 23 receiving its |motion from some source not shownon the'drawings.

The guiding and'vfolding "means consists ofi a base member 24 provided with Vintegral U'-flan'ges 25,*and isi of suchl width fastoaccommodate thematerial 12. 1 TheseU-flanges lie `flat with`the'base24 fora portion o'f the base thereafter graduallystanding up vertically, clearly. shown Fig. 5, and then doubling up upon' they base as shown .in Fig; "6; As the. material 12 is pulled lover the base 24,. the said Ueflanges 25' causetheedges `12of the material to be bent as indicated on vthe drawings. 'A separator' 26 extends 'from one end of the vbase 24rto' ythe other end, and is secured to theUfshapedflanges 25 at one end, as at 27 l v.A guide member 28 Adependslfrom the separator'26, and the'mater-ial 13 passes therethrough. The separator 26 extends befV neath the doubled over `U-shaped flanges, so that "as the edges 12 are formed `the lining material 13 islocated beneath these`edg'es12". `Gruide members 28 are secured on top of the iianges 25 and the material 14 passes therethrough. l

An' auxiliary guide member for the materialsleaving thevbase structure 24, consists of mezzanine base member 3 0 secured to the base 24, and provided with guide strips31 on its top iside to. accommodatethe materials 12 and 13, themateria'l, 12 having the bent edges 12", a partition 32 supported across th-e edge members 31, upper guide strips 33 to accommodate material 14 supported on the partition l32 and' a. top cover 34 supported on the rupper guide strips 33. The auxiliary guide member functions to holdlthe edges V12 folded in place and the v:rubberized tape thereupon,-so 'that the vironing means aots to properly fasten the parts ,togetheni Y y; p

. ,Whilelhave illustrated and describedthe preferred form, Aconstruction ,and .arrangef ment of the several elements employed, it will be understood that the device is, nevertheless, susceptible of considerable modification therein, and I therefore reserve the right and privilege of resorting to all such changes as may be fairly embodied within the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by United States Letters Patent is:

1. In a device for making-'ties without the use of stitching, a base member. provided on said upper guide strips forming a passage between the top cover and the said partition for the rubberized tape, and means to draw the said materials through said folding and guide means and beneath said ironing means.

In testimony whereof I have aflixed my signature. i
